Unlock Unprecedented Storage Density & Workflow Efficiency

The core innovation of the Herochu system lies in its intelligent double tower design. This configuration fundamentally transforms your storage footprint:

• Double the Capacity: Effectively doubles your sheet metal storage capacity within the same floor space compared to conventional single-tower or racking systems.

• One Discharging Device, Two Warehouses: Maximize equipment utilization and minimize investment. A single, centrally located electric discharging mechanism efficiently serves both storage towers simultaneously.

• Flexible Discharge Options: Accommodate diverse workshop flows with both side and rear discharging capabilities, seamlessly integrating with downstream processes like laser cutting or machining centers.

Automated Precision for Enhanced Productivity & Quality

Herochu’s system goes beyond mere storage; it introduces intelligent automation to streamline your entire plate handling operation:

• Automated Put-Away & Retrieval: The system automatically stores incoming plates and retrieves them on demand, drastically reducing manual labor and handling time.

• Integrated Weight Detection: Automatically detects and records the weight of each plate upon storage, providing valuable data for inventory management and process control.

• Centralized PLC & Touch Screen Control: Intuitive operation via a user-friendly touch screen interface managed by a robust Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). This ensures precise control, repeatability, safety interlocking, and operational logging.

• Dual Loading Flexibility: Designed for real-world logistics, accepting plates via forklift or overhead crane, adapting effortlessly to your existing material intake processes.

Robust Construction for Heavy-Duty Industrial Demands

Built to handle the rigors of industrial environments and heavy sheet metal loads:

• Massive Load Capacity: Supports 3 Tons (3T) or 5 Tons (5T) per storage layer, accommodating thick steel, aluminum, brass, and other metals.

• Optimized Layer Configuration: Configured with 8 to 13 layers (based on model/height), maximizing vertical space utilization.

• Precision Movement System: Utilizes high-quality linear guide rails and chain drive transmission for smooth, reliable, and accurate vertical lifting and horizontal in/out movement.

  • Vertical Lifting Speed: 9 m/min

  • Inlet/Outlet Speed: 12 m/min

• Customizable Plate Support: Tailor the support system to your specific plate dimensions and requirements.

Engineered for Safety, Certified for Reliability

Safety and quality are paramount when handling heavy materials:

• CE & UE Certified: Guarantees compliance with stringent European health, safety, and environmental protection directives.

• ISO 9001 Certified: Assures consistent quality in design, manufacturing, and service, reflecting Herochu’s commitment to excellence.

• PLC Safety Integration: The control system incorporates critical safety features and interlocks to protect personnel and equipment during operation.
